Is it possible to just use a still camera and disable animated textures in-game? Higher screen resolutions would require higher-res PNGs.

@kia100

i used ironwail for the screenshots
which has the sv_freezenonclients command that freezes everything but the players movement so u can lock the position of everything including animated textures and the put the player camera where u want the shot to be

ive got saves of all the shots i made so i can load those and retake the shot

levelshot-saves.zip

heres the saves if u wanna make higher res versions

note u have to clip the camera out of the world geo in a few shots to get the entities to re-appear
to keep them visable when clipped into the geo use the quakespasm command "sv_freezenonclients"

here is how our dev bind for that looks
